Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With PD According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) or Death (Data Cutoff 17 May 2008) | Screening, BL [≤21 days after randomization], every 6 weeks thereafter until Week 48, every 12 weeks thereafter until PD, discontinuation of study treatment, or end of survival follow-up, up to data cutoff of 17 May 2008 (up to 27 months) | Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from randomization to PD or death, whichever occurred first. For target lesions (TLs), PD was defined at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of the largest diameter (SLD), taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline (BL) more the appearance of one or more new lesions. For non-target lesions (NTLs), PD was defined as the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing NTLs. Participants without PD or death were censored at the date of last tumor assessment where non-progression was documented. |
| Primary | PFS in All Participants (Data Cutoff 17 May 2008) | Screening, BL (≤21 days after randomization), every 6 weeks thereafter until Week 48, every 12 weeks thereafter until PD, discontinuation of study treatment, or end of survival follow-up, up to data cutoff of 17 May 2008 (up to 27 months) | The median time, in weeks, from randomization to PFS event. Participants without PD or death were censored at the date of last tumor assessment where non-progression was documented. The 95% confidence interval (CI) was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. |
| Primary | Probable Percentage of Participants Remaining Alive and Free of Disease Progression at 6 Months (Data Cutoff 17 May 2008) | 6 months | PFS was defined as the time from randomization to PD or death, whichever occurred first. For TLs, PD was defined at least a 20% increase in the SLD, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from BL more the appearance of one or more new lesions. For NTLs, PD was defined as the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing NTLs. Participants without PD or death were censored at the date of last tumor assessment where non-progression was documented. The 95% CI was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. |
| Primary | Percentage of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Positive Participants With PD or Death (Data Cutoff 17 May 2008) | Screening, BL (≤21 days after randomization), every 6 weeks thereafter until Week 48, every 12 weeks thereafter until PD, discontinuation of study treatment, or end of survival follow-up, up to data cutoff of 17 May 2008 (up to 27 months) | PFS was defined as the time from randomization to PD or death, whichever occurred first. For TLs, PD was defined at least a 20% increase in the SLD, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded since treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. For NTLs, PD was defined as the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing NTLs. Participants without PD or death were censored at the date of last tumor assessment where non-progression was documented. |
| Primary | PFS in EGFR IHC Positive Population (Data Cutoff 17 May 2008) | Screening, BL (≤ 21 days after randomization), every 6 weeks thereafter until Week 48, every 12 weeks thereafter until PD, discontinuation of study treatment, or end of survival follow-up, up to data cutoff of 17 May 2008 (up to 27 months) | The median time, in weeks, from randomization to PFS event. Participants without PD or death were censored at the date of last tumor assessment where non-progression was documented. The 95% CI was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. |
| Primary | Probable Percentage of Participants in the EGFR IHC Positive Population Remaining Alive and Progression Free at 6 Months (Data Cutoff 17 May 2008) | 6 months | PFS was defined as the time from randomization to PD or death, whichever occurred first. For TLs, PD was defined at least a 20% increase in the SLD, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded since treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. For NTLs, PD was defined as the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing NTLs. Participants without PD or death were censored at the date of last tumor assessment where non-progression was documented. The 95% CI was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. |
| Secondary | Percentage of All Participants Who Died (Data Cutoff 12 January 2012) | Screening, BL (≤21 days after randomization), every 6 weeks thereafter until Week 48, every 12 weeks thereafter until PD, discontinuation of study treatment, or end of survival follow-up, up to data cutoff of 12 January 2012 (up to 71 months). | |
| Secondary | Overall Survival (OS) in All Participants (Data Cutoff 12 January 2012) | Screening, BL (≤ 21 days after randomization), every 6 weeks thereafter until Week 48, every 12 weeks thereafter until PD, discontinuation of study treatment, or end of survival follow-up, up to data cutoff of 12 January 2012 (up to 71 months) | OS was defined as the median time, in months, from the date of randomization to the date of death, due to any cause. Patients who have not died at the time of the final analysis will be censored at the date the patient was last known to be alive. The 95% CI was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. |
| Secondary | Probable Percentage of Participants Remaining Alive at 1 Year (Data Cutoff 12 January 2012) | 1 year | OS was defined as the median time, in months, from the date of randomization to the date of death, due to any cause. Patients who have not died at the time of the final analysis will be censored at the date the patient was last known to be alive. The 95% CI was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology. |
| Secondary | Percentage of EGFR IHC Positive Participants Who Died (Data Cutoff 12 January 2012) | Screening, BL (≤21 days after randomization), every 6 weeks thereafter until Week 48, every 12 weeks thereafter until PD, discontinuation of study treatment, or end of survival follow-up, up to data cutoff of 12 January 2012 (up to 71 months) |
